We have no room for these people. We can't even take care of the people we have.

[Tinaok]

This is so ridiculous… Close the border and build that wall.

As a Honduran immigrant I believe it’s a privilege to be in the US and we shouldn’t DEMAND to be let in like these Venezuelans are doing

If your going to act w/ lawlessness now, what are you going to do when you trespass here.

[OddOtter]

If they're willing to break the laws getting into the country, whats gonna stop them from following any laws when they're in?

If only they had shown that level of defiance and vigor in the face of their own corrupt governments and oppressers.

Look my family went through the process the right way and so do they gotta make sure not to let the wrong people in.

It’s like forcing your way in to be enrolled at a school after failing the entrance exams.

and yet this administration says there's no crisis at the border.

[tvtime]

Looks like a huge national security risk.

[fajarkurniawan]

if only they have this kind of spirit to fight in their own country

This was 10 months ago.. and yet the border is still wide open ..

[vanessapebley]

Stop GIVING them money, food and housing.

It's the entitlement for me. They really believe they're entitled to break the law and force themselves in instead of doing it the lawful way. Entitlement!

[johnnybautistajr]

The military needs to step in and secure the border.

[jeremiahnoar]

I've seen people at 6 flags stand in line with more patience.

[fadmap]

Ah yes come on in to a country where the cheapest rent for 1 bedroom is 1800 a month, they're gonna turn right around and go back after they see how much everything costs here, gas, food, etc.

[FilnetMgnigon]

So scary, the government needs to protect borders the same way families protect their homes and private properties

[DanielWayShadow]

🤯🤕This is like a post apocalypse zombie horror movie. Where is the common sense?

[legendxx]
